What does a heat pump installer do?
A heat pump installer advises, supplies and installs heat pump systems. There are different types: hybrid heat pumps (in combination with a central heating boiler), air-water heat pumps (fully electric) and ground source heat pumps. An experienced installer in The Hague will assess which type best suits your home, insulation level and energy consumption.
When is a heat pump interesting?
A heat pump is a sustainable alternative to natural gas. It is especially interesting if your home is well insulated (label B or better). A hybrid heat pump is suitable for almost every home and saves 40-60% on gas. A fully electric heat pump is ideal for new construction or after a thorough renovation. In The Hague, subsidies are often available through the ISDE scheme.
What do you pay attention to when choosing an installer in The Hague?
Choose a STEK or F-gas certified installer. Request multiple quotes and compare by type of heat pump, COP value, noise level and warranty. A good installer first calculates your heating needs and advises whether extra insulation is needed. Check whether the installer will arrange the subsidy application for you.
